Insights into BLACKPINK’s Lisa and Her Solo Endeavors
Lisa, known for her talent as a rapper, singer, dancer, and actress, gained fame as a part of the K-pop sensation BLACKPINK, which debuted in 2016 under YG Entertainment. However, in a significant development, all four members of BLACKPINK announced in December 2023 their intentions to leave the agency following the expiration of their contracts.
Despite the group’s departure from YG, their collective contract remains valid with the agency. As a result, the BLACKPINK members have embarked on solo projects under new labels. Lisa launched her own agency, LLOUD, in February 2024, through which she has released tracks including “Rockstar”and “New Woman”featuring Rosalìa.
Further solidifying her solo career, Lisa released her first studio album, Alter Ego, in February 2024, backed by RCA Records for global promotions. Additionally, she made her acting debut in the acclaimed HBO series White Lotus, portraying Mook, a hotel worker in Thailand. With a diverse range of content, fans are eagerly anticipating the next chapters of her flourishing career.
As the excitement builds for Coachella 2025, the prospect of a Doja Cat and BLACKPINK Lisa collaboration promises to deliver a memorable show that could redefine live performances at the renowned music festival.
